THE SPECULATIVE W4TERLOO.

Where Is the bottom, men are anxiously ask
ing In view Of the decline in wheat at Chicago
false, gamblers market has existed so long
that many sensible men are constantly think
ing, not If the worlds demand and supply,
but of tho probable goodness or badness OF
Kershaws checks, or the exhaustion or sol
yency of clique Of operators as the CONTROL
ing influence in the markell The one lesson
which recent events have taught Is that even
the strongest clique cannot in the long run
resist the laws Of supply and demand. The
surplus in this country must be sold abroad
or ID cannot be sold at all. Tho foreign mar
kct. therefore, determines in a large measure
the price at which that surplus can he safely
held. Given Liverpool prices, as those arc
determined by competing demands for tho
wheat of India, Russia, Turkey California and
Chicago, and the cost of transportation from
Chicago to Liverpool, one can calculate with
some precision what tho surplus at Chicago
may be expected to bring. When temporary
disaster pushes prices below that figure, tho
market has substantial ground for confidence.
1t is encouraging that none of tho great
financial institutions Of Chicago or New DIRK
have been involved In disaster by the collapse
in wheat The large loans made by Chicago
banks on wheat appear to have been at
safo rates, and though many Spectators go
down. the financial institutions only transfer
balances from one set of men to another. But
that does not alter the fact that leans for the
purpose of aiding corner In wheat are per-
ncious in their influence. Thousands OF IN
dviduals, scattered through Western cities and
towns, have lost money heavily because banks
have made it possible for n clique to control
the wheat market so long in defiance of leslt-
innate influences Perhaps 1t Is too much to
hope that the banks will refrain in future from
q policy which, however hurtful to the com
munity. they find safe and profitable But the
commercial public can easily give powerful en-
couragement 10 those institutions which do
refrain
Coffee and wheat have gone down, but some
other commodities have been unnatuinlly hoist
ed bv purely speculative forces, and In these
reactions would be beneficial to industry and
trade. Pork has been advanced nearly 90 per
cent since November l, although the NUMBER
of hogs packed has been larger than duling the
corresponding period last year, and the export
demand has been smaller Cotton has been al
yanccd 25 per Cent, though print cloths are
selling at a lower price than IN November.
ADJUSTMENTS Of values one way or the Other
mr. necessary TO give freedom to industrial
operations and health to legitimate trade The
sound policy In all such cases Is not to resist
the advance or decline which may be necessary
in order to bring market into harmony with
natural laws. For stubborn resistance though
il NAV be successful for time, rs 1T was ior
months in tho wheat pit, only involves scvcrer
losses and greater disturbance in the end.

The Fire Marshal of Brooklyn finds that the
Iavemeyer Refinery fire was not OF incendiary
origin, but was probably due to spon-
taneous combustion The relation between the
employers and the employees was most pleasant.
and there is no ground for suspccting any OF
them This is a result that will be especially
pleasng TO those who feared that this fire was
to be classed with the recent coOperage fire In
Williamsburg, the authors Of which confessed
their crime and received speedy punishment.
There seems to be an effort under way to
shift from President Cleveland the response
bility for issuing the odious order to return the
rebel battle flags The correspondence pub
lished today indicates that Adjutant-G General
Drum is to be made scapegoat 10 some ex-
tent at least. communication sent by him
to the Secretary of War on April 30 Is given
out in which he ~ventued to suggest the Ho-
priety' of returning both Union and Confed-
crate flags to the States from which the regi
ments bearing them came This is put forth
as the first mention of the subject. AS to tho
origin of the scheme, however, General Drum
was already on record. In an apparently au-
thorized interview with him printed two or
three days ago. he asserted: "The President
recommended tho return Of the flags. .
The idea originated with the Administration.
That fixes the responsibility. Grover Cleve-
land, and no one else. must bear tho blame
for this supreme blunder.
Certain peace loving and law abiding cih-
zens were ncommonly successful in "reviying
the memories of the war; last evening at Del.
monico's, but since it was the Revolutionary
War and had only indirect reference to tho
current battle-Aag discussion, the propriety
of the movement will not be questioned by tho
most captious. And it Is movement with
a we'll defined purpose that this society OF the
Sons. Of the Revolution has begun. The al-
pearance of their pamIhlet shows quiet
eamcstness, and the character Of the member
ship is guarantee of disintercste1ness as well
as Of zeal. II is high time that the city where
Nathan Hale laid down his life should erect
some memorial of his devotion to the cause oil
freedom Here, In City Hall Park, the old
Revolutionary camp and parade ground, "a
beyond question the spot where a statue OF
the martyr spy should stand The enterprise
IS auspiciously begun. and it makes an appeal
10 patriotism that cannot be resisted.
